"I'm preparing to launch an attack in the Yamticha system. The enemy 11 fleet would definitely send a request for help, but the distance between the fleets made it impossible for them to coordinate with each other. In the face of any of them, the fleet must use its mobility and firepower superiority to quickly break through. Violet stroked the ends of her golden hair as she spoke, "Our army also has an epoch-making tactical weapon such as mobile uniforms, and in the case of the destruction of Mandolfel, the enemy fleet will not be able to resist the full force of our army. ”

……

Brigadier General Pereuus, Admiral of the 11th Rapid Sentai of the Trade Federation, woke up in a hurry with a stomach full of gas.

The three fleets had already firmly blocked the way of the Bayeran fleet, and it only took a little net to harvest the prey. The previous defeat of the 3rd Fleet was enough to allow Pereus to gain another admiral, and if he could do something about sinking the capital ship of Bronhil this time, he would be closer to the title of Vice Admiral of the Space Fleet.

With all sorts of good moods, Brigadier Pereus returned to his cabin and prepared for a good night's sleep, but the good dreams were shattered before they could begin.

"What's going on?" Pereus asked angrily, "Isn't there still a hundred stars to go before the Battle Universe?" The enemy has already appeared? ”

"This ......," said the adjutant in embarrassment, "ten minutes ago our communications and radar were disrupted, and we were unable to contact the 6th and 7th fleets. ”

"What about photoelectric signals? Is there anything abnormal? ”

"No enemy was found," the adjutant said, "but the range of the optoelectronic and thermal search was limited." I'm worried about ......"

"There's nothing to worry about," the brigadier general in command of the fast fleet waved his hand, interrupting the adjutant's speech, and walked towards the command seat as he spoke, "The enemy's remnant fleet is already in a situation where it is powerless to fight back, and in the face of our powerful fleet, we will definitely find a way to find a space conducive to defense and put it in a dense formation." When the time comes, our three fleets will kill at the same time, and the sky and the earth will ......."

"Photoelectric signals detect traces of enemy ships!" The bridge observer suddenly shouted, startling the officers, "The signal of the enemy ship, at a distance of 18 star ranges, is rapidly approaching this ship!" ”

Brigadier General Pereus, who had just sat down, jumped up, and beads of sweat appeared on his head with agility: "What's the matter!" When!? ”

This is a question that even his adjutants could not answer. The radar signal has not been reacting, and this distance is already the limit of optoelectronic search.

Two huge signals appeared ahead, at least of the rank above the heavy cruiser. In addition, there are 2 medium signals and several small signals of the light cruiser class.

18 star range, which is also the ultimate range of naval guns. Before the Trade Alliance fleet could react, 12 beams of light had already illuminated the dark deep space, almost grazing the 11th Fleet.

"Shelling! Shelling above the heavy cruiser! ”

"Quick! Adjust the fleet, shell the battle! Pereus shouted, "Inform the 6th and 7th fleets, discover the Bayeran fleet!" ”

"Communication is disrupted!"

"Send a transport boat! Immediately! Right away! ”

The 11th Fast Fleet, which was marching in order to hurry, immediately opened up and wanted to meet it. The battlecruiser "Hood" in the center began to accelerate forward as the flagship, and the heavy cruiser "Brilliant" in the front slowed down slightly, preparing to maintain an array with the flagship.

"Prepare to fight back!" Brigadier General Pereus took a breath, "Both the enemy and us are a battle patrol and a heavy patrol, and the strength is ......."

"Boom!" Before the words fell, there was a sudden terrifying popping sound in the Radiance ship. The crowd on the bridge saw a bright ball of light explode not far ahead.

The heavy patrol at the front was hit.

"No, it can't be...... How can you start a hit from such a distance? Brigadier General Pereus got wet behind his back and stared at the bright light in amazement.

……

Xiao Yan pulled the pursuer up, and the oppressive force from the rapid sprint almost made him vomit out his stomach acid.

With the blow just now, with the help of the remote fire of the main guns of the Burrenshire battle group, Xiao Yan, who had already approached the 11th Fleet, drove his mobile suit and rushed towards the slowing down Radiance.

The heavy proton torpedo hit the stern of the heavy cruiser at 0 distance, and the giant ship exploded on the spot.

"Huh~ha!" Xiao Yan panted with all his might. The oppression of the pilot by this immature weapon is really unusual.

But with the stealth effect of N neutrons, radar is simply useless. The relatively small photoelectric signal is difficult to detect as long as it is kept at a distance.

Next up is that battlecruiser! Xiao Yan's goal is not to kill all the enemies by himself, which is neither realistic nor necessary.

The pursuers no longer had the scruples of exposing themselves, and the engines were full fire and pounced on the Hood.

"An optoelectronic signal has been found, underneath the ship!" The Hood spotted the approaching pursuers. However, due to radar interference and the explosion of the Brilliant, the photoelectric signal was not clear, and the warning was not issued until very close.

"What's that? Carrier-based aircraft! Brigadier General Pereus was shocked, "How could it be in that position!" Anyway, go up in formation and kill it! ”

By this time, the second wave of shelling of the Brenhill and the Hero had arrived. Having lost cover from the Brilliant, the Hood hurriedly returned fire while maneuvering at high speed.

The stalker creaked under the furious acceleration. Xiao Yan's cockpit was filled with the sound of malfunction alarms and enemy signal alarms.

The huge battle cruiser is getting bigger and bigger on the screen, and several carrier-based aircraft are outflanking it nearby.

"You're too late~!" Xiao Yan was almost immobile by the acceleration, but he also smoothly followed the vital engine of the Hood.

Due to the sudden attack, there was no time to put up an air defense formation, and the tail of the flagship of the 11th Fleet of the Trade Federation appeared to be naked.

"Got it!"

The remaining two proton torpedoes whizzed out. The reacting close-in defense guns desperately intercepted and damaged one of them.

But the distance is already too close. The first proton torpedo exploded at the stern of the ship, slashing off the shield, causing a frenzy of energy that destroyed one engine and then detonated the second torpedo, which was damaged.

"Boom!"

Brigadier General Pereus flew out of his seat. Like him, the bridge officers, who did not buckle up, crackled everywhere like fried beans in a cauldron.

"The engine is broken! The speed of this ship is less than 5 star knots! ”

The two capital ships of the Trade Alliance's 11th Fast Fleet were damaged in less than five minutes into the battle. Although their reactors continue to operate, their speed has dropped to the level of not being as fast as that of merchant ships.

The firing of the two fleets immediately turned into a one-sided target by Bayeran.

Colonel Warren Haydn stood on the bridge and watched in amazement at the destruction of the Trade Union fleet. The fire of the naval guns is getting closer and closer to the enemy ships.

"It's time for the next round," muttered the colonel.

In just the fifth volley, the Burrenshire hit the slow Hood.

Massive energy tore through the shield, shattering into pieces of golden and white light. The main gun then pierced through the armor, causing a massive explosion inside the Hood's hull.

The extremely expensive battlecruiser Hood had already caught fire, and before the engine could fail, even the shield was gone, and it floated like a dead fish.

"Abandon the ship! Abandon the ship! Brigadier Pereus lay on his back on the floor of the bridge and groaned lowly, but there was no one around him to carry out his orders. The blow hit the Hood's conning tower, killing half of the officers, and the remaining half were lying on the ground with the Admiral.

……

"The winner has been decided, Your Excellency." Faphnir turned and said, "The enemy fleet has lost its main artillery fire and shields. But it will take a little more time to destroy the armor. ”

"Give them 5 minutes to abandon the ship, let the Star Destroyer get closer, and shoot armor-piercing shells to sink them." Brigadier Violet withdrew his gaze from the information displayed on the screen, "Brenhill, Harrow, Oscar, Azore, turn and target...... Enemy 6th Fleet. ”
